Hymn of Grace It frightens me the flow the go of it in red wet dirt Stop Too fast the hate can’t wait to take I see a fist rising from the nest where babies are blessed How many quiet voices know how to sing If music could bring Peace Peace the song to world a hymn of grace |

Martie - your words say volumes - my hope is that people thinking these words will get through to our country's leadership and they would think with grace and love and peace and not egos, hatred, getting even, etc. Let's all raise our voices in hymn's of peace and grace - Paul |

![]() (tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Martie, I wish with all my heart we can speak more like the innocent children we all were and with that love establish a true harmony for everyone, this is so very true and my heart prays for this relief to come! (big hugggssssss) This is wonderfully heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I like the thoughts and the flow, but I get confused on the lines including the second "Peace" and remaining. Could you help me? I know I'm the only one, by the other comments. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
